Can the Republican Party stand for something different than Trump?

The problem is: They want their cake and eat it too. They can't have it both ways.

Only the Republican Party has the power to do something about this present on-coming crisis. Some may say it is already here? But they don't want to do anything about Trump so long as they think he is useful to them.

Every day we seem to inch closer and closer to a very challenging crisis. So long as they continue to prop up the king, they are complicit in everything that happens as a result of their support.

No one can predict the future, they say. But some can interpret the present. In a sense, the present is the future.

But, as Richard Clarke has pointed out in his book, those people are rare that can see these events coming. People tend to discount anything that does not have a precedent - that has never happened before. He called it "first occurrences". They are incredible to most people.

Is this where the Republican Party is at today? They do not know what to do because what we see happening is a "first occurrence". There is no strategy or playbook on how to handle it?

Perhaps this is a time that Democrats and Republicans should discuss the reality of the environment we are now in? Communication is essential to resolving any problem, I would think?
